The Alpha’s Fated Outcast: Rise Of The Moonsinger

164 Voice in my head … Nathan I stormed out of the living room towards the entrance of the Alpha building and I shoved the door open , barely restraining myself from slamming the door .

Anger pure rage coursed through my veins like molten , making my hands shake at my sides and my jaw tighten .

The audacity .

I growled under my breath .

Luna Vanessas presumptuous suggestion that I marry Clarissa still rang in my cars .

Even though it was being reechoed in my mind , each word sounded like an insult .

How dare she ? How dare Luna Vanessa suggest I marry Clarissa ? Reminding me of my status as a Beta Wolf like Im some common Omega she can command at will ! Ragnar rumbled in disagreement .

Luna Vanessa didnt mean it that way .

Im sure she only wants you to marry Clarisis to strengthen your title and the pack .

Having an Alpha wife has a lot of advantages and it would mean that your children … Can you stop the nonsense youre going on about ? What about Lyla ? Shes agreed to marry us , Ragnar .

Did you forget ? Shes also the daughter of the Alpha … what are worrying about now ? Is she really ? Ragnar sighed .

I just feel strange these days , Nathan .

I feel that Lyla may not be the one for us , and maybe were forcing things .

I wish youd just sit back and think things through .

That would do so much for us than blindly accepting everything , dont you think ? I know she confessed she wants to marry us , but … it feels like shes doing it out of compulsion .

e given Shut up , Ragnar ! I bristled , feeling my anger heightening .

And no talks about that .

Ive everything for this pack .

My loyalty , my strength , my life everything ! And now , you all want to deny me of the one thing I want the most and barter me off like a prize ? I raked my hand through my hair , tugging at my strands .

Does anyone care to consider my feelings ? I love Lyla … so fucking much , and I want to be with her .

No one is disputing that , Nathan , Ragnar sighed .

A few years ago , I could see the passion , the intensity of the love you had for Lyla , but … maybe things have changed .

A slight pause … ..

What if you no longer love her like before and youre doing this to teach Ramsey a lesson or maybe its something else … infatuation or a feeling of indebtedness because of how she helped you through your mothers death ? Maybe if you look closely enough , youd discover that … you dont really love Lyla like you think , and youre doing this because you feel responsible for her .

Rubbish ! I thundered .

Shut up this moment , Ragnar ! How dare you question my feelings ? I am your wolf .

I am a part of you , Nathan … I can tell what you feel about someone .

I really can .

You cant ! I retorted , Because if you did , youd be able to know that I love Lyla dearly and not give me this nonsense excuse and you want me to choose Clarissa ? There was a momentary pause on Ragnars end before he said , Yes , nothing is wrong with her and she loves you dearly .

Clarissa ? my voice dripped with disdain .

Of all people .

Just because shes the Alphas daughter ten in my head .

164 Voice in Clarissa ? my voice dripped with disdain .

Of all people .

Just because shes the Alphas daughter doesnt mean Ill fall in line .

This is pure manipulation .

Using my position against me .

Reminding me that … No one is manipulating you , Ragnar interrupted .

There was no ill intention coming from Luna Vanessa .

Stop interpreting it as that .

Besides , the seven core Alphas have been able to preserve their power and true blood by marrying each others children all these years .

None of them marry lower than their rank .

Lyla is not lower than my tank ! Shes Alpha Logans daughter … I screamed .

My feet had taken me to the edge of the forest now .

She is his bastard .

Maybe if she had been a man , she would have stood a better chance , but you know werewolves are intentional about things like this .

No one would ever recognize Lyla as his legitimate child .

Luna Vanessa was kind enough to … ENOUGH !!! I screamed … Im done listening to you .

Youre making everything worse .

And youre running away from the truth .

You have been running away for the longest time .

You want to make yourself a scapegoat and sacrifice everything youve been through .

Look at Ramsey ….

he knows what his duties are , and he chooses his duties , knowing that the lives of thousands of people depend on his decision .

He loves Lyla , but hes not driven by it .

He has remained logical and sane through it all … Ragnar , dont you think treating her like shit is illogical ? I fired back .

He picked a side .

Hes a great leader , Nathan .

Putting your feelings first before your people … Ragnar sighed .

Its a bad call and a sign of weakness .

I am not weak ! I shot back , hating where this conversation was going Staying in a dungeon for four years doesnt mean youre strong .

It shows youre indecisive and unsure about what you want out of life .

A focused man would know that to love a woman , he shouldnt make himself a scapegoat in easily avoidable situations .

He continued … You strife to protect her and secure her , things which you could not do because you were in the dungeon .

Ragnar sighed .

Tve allowed you to do what you want all these years because youre my owner , but its time to open your eyes … its not too late to make amends .

So , you want me to leave Lyla for Ramsey ? The same man that mistreated her ? The same man that knows if he makes her his mate now , she wouldnt need to endure the tauntings she would have from years ago if he had caved in to his desires and declared her his mate .

The people will come for his head and not just that … for Lylas , too .

Itll make her more depressed , kill her inside slowly … but he waited and you all think he did that because he was ashamed of her .

I paused , considering Ragnars words .

A true man protects what he wants dearly , even if it means keeping her like a secret .

Even if it meant Lyla crying and feeling like he hated her .

Come to think of it … who she is now is solely because of her and not because he influenced or aided her .

If ever they get mated in the future .

164 Voice in my head …… ..

A true man protects what he wants dearly , even if it means keeping her like a secret .

Even if it meant Lyla crying and feeling like he hated her .

Come to think of it … who she is now is solely because of her and not because he influenced or aided her .

If ever they get mated in the future , people would see her as the Moonsinger , the saviour of our world , and not some defect with uncontrollable pheromones .

Id rather die alone than be shackled to someone I feel nothing for , I vented .

If you marry Lyla … youd feel something disgust .

I let out a frustrated snarl and began stripping off my shirt .

My muscles were taut with pent up .

energy .

It was no use talking to Ragnar .noveldrama

I need to run .

You need to listen to me , Ragnar sighed .

Stop running away from the truth .

Without responding , I shut him out and broke into a sprint , taking off into the woods , my legs pumping as I tore through the dense forest in my human form .

The forest blurred around me as I ran faster and faster , my lungs were burning with each breath , the cool wind biting at my exposed skin .

I didnt slow down .

I wanted to outrun the anger , the frustration , the suffocating weight of expectations and , most of all , the Truth .

I didnt stop until my muscles were screaming in protest , finally , I collapsed at the base of an oak tree .

Swe dripped down my face as I panted , trying to catch my breath .

The bark was rough against my bare back , grounding me as I tilted my head back and closed my eyes .

For a while , there was only the sound of my breathing and the rustling of leaves in the wind .

Then a faint crunch of twigs snapped me to attention .

My head snapped up , my eyes narrowing as I whipped around , glaring at the figure approaching .

Dont you dare ! I growled , rising to my feet and brushing the dirt from my pants .

Im not in the mood .
